Managing Information
Welcome to Managing Information
Welcome to Managing Information magazine, a subscription magazine available both electronically and in print format, for everyone who uses information – YOUR eye on the information world.
Good information, knowledge, data and records management is a crucial part of good management. For both regulatory compliance (and avoidance of risk) and maximizing value from assets objectives, sound information expertise is essential to excellence and success.
Managing Information provides readers with everything they need to stay ahead of developments and best practice in the fields of information, knowledge and records management.
Core areas of focus include Data Protection, Freedom of Information and Intellectual Property (especially copyright), and the legislative framework for information. We also cover knowledge management, taxonomy and metadata (or classification and cataloguing/indexing to use more traditional terms). Other areas include IT security (which is crucial for data protection compliance and the protection of assets), along with aspects of IT such as the emerging Cloud Computing Technologies. We include coverage on disaster recovery (information and data aspects), the internet, Web 2.0 and social media, libraries, information centres and museums. We cater for every sector (corporate and commercial, public, academic/educational, voluntary).
Our purpose is to help our readers enhance their own performance, and that of their organizations. We provide news, comment and analysis, feature articles on best practice, visits to information services to provide readers with new ideas and access to expertise, and reviews. The 10 issues a year 72 page per issue Managing Information magazine is backed up by a soon to be relaunched web news service.
Helping you make the most from information and knowledge is our business - we are your eye on the information world.
